A Vision of Human Flourishing
The origins and inspiration of Orgasmic Meditation from OM founder Nicole Daedone
A Modality Oriented Towards Human Connection
Remarks from Orgasmic Meditation founder Nicole Daedone
When I looked at methods for spiritual advancement, I wanted something that was based in connection. Orgasmic Meditation is safe and an accelerated modality for growth as the science is now showing. More to the point, it promotes human connection.
The other practices that I’ve done, all of which I still would not do without, can be done in isolation. If I was going to move into the Zen Center, or if I was going to do OM, that was the choice that I made.
I wanted it to be that I wanted something that had me be a more connected human being so that ultimately I could benefit humanity. What I discovered is the greatest challenge to benefiting humanity that I found is humanity.
The malaise we feel is one of disconnection. There is a state of consciousness where you feel a wider sense of connection to all things. That is what Orgasmic Meditation offers.

It is the human impulse to want to move to a point of freedom. And so whatever that impulse was in me, I was seeking and I thought I had found it.
–Nicole Daedone
On How She First Found OM
“Today, it was 25 years ago that I had my first rough approximation of an OM. I had done meditation, I had done yoga. I was coming out of intensive, psychedelic personal research, and I had done some deep dives into flow through roller skating. I knew the human impulse to move to a point of freedom. I was at a Zen party and I was planning on moving into the Zen center, and one of the practitioners said to me, “Oh, have I have something for you? It was great pickup line.”
On Her First OM Experience
“There was a sense of going through a curtain and beyond it was this clear open highway.
I had access to a very, very deep sense of knowing, a sense of being connected to all things…a lack of self-consciousness. That ruminating mind was gone, and a feeling of almost as if I had lived with this sense that something was possible and now it was here.”
When you tap into the state accessible in OM, you feel connected to another human being. And when you feel connected to another human being, you begin this wider sense of being connected to all things and something naturally heals itself in that state.
